"Something Funny, I Guess?"

You'll never guess what Beth ordered for her daughter's birthday party!

Or, ok, maybe you will.

Ah, but can you decipher the exact words used in this phone call?

Nailed it.

Hey, you're good at this!

Now, how well can you follow directions?

Nice to know Jackie keeps herself centered.

Marissa's boss was leaving on a trip, so she wanted to get a cake that said, "So................" as an inside joke. She specified that there should be 18 dots, so...

Good luck with that, Marissa.

(I like how the baker spontaneously switched to cursive for just the letter R.)

(Also, "Fallowing?" You ever wonder what these bakers THINK they're writing?)

And finally, you guys will never guess where the baker is going with this one!

Now with bonus color commentary on today's post: the cast of Hogan's Heroes, everybody!

Thanks, guys.

And thanks to Beth M., Jenny S., Sky C., Marissa, & Robert F. for addressing the problem.
